The email you get after ordering via PayPal is 5275KB. That includes the .zip
file attachment which is 3.86MB. I received mine OK via earthlink.net email.

But gmail.com email won't work because they block .exe files, even if zipped. So
some email systems will work, some won't.

Speaking from experience it is difficult to discover the FAQs about email
systems and their absolute limits on email and attachment size. The best way is
probably to test them - send an email from a different source and see if it is
received.

In my research I ran across a free email system that might be a solution at
www.gawab.com and a preliminary test indicated it works OK. Use at your own
risk. Some of their advertisements are "unusual"!?

To order via a download link, you may have to wait awhile til the shareit system
starts working. Maybe tomorrow.
